I came across this way of eating quite randomly. While perusing Facebook, a friend recommended a friend to me, and – while checking out his profile – I saw that he had recently joined a group named Zeroing in on Health. The cover photo for the group is a huge bloody slab of beef, needless…

My First Three Months on Zero Carb By Michael Brown
“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” ~Jiddu Krishnamurti Well, I think it only fair to warn the prospective reader that the following testimonial about my Zero Carb diet – although briefly mentioning boxing – has no inspiring ‘Rocky’ moment. In fact, compared to such heavy-hitting Zero…
Zero Carb Interview: Christine Scholtes
1. How long have you been eating a Zero Carb (No Plant Foods) diet? I started Atkins around April 2010, just after finding out I had Type 2 diabetes and got orders from the hospital to get a prescription for the drug Metformin. I told the doctor I was probably diabetic for quite a few…
My First Three Months on Zero Carb by Adam Valls
Except for a two year period where I was at a reasonably healthy weight, I’ve been fat for most of my adult life. In fact, I was probably classified as morbidly obese. I am now 38 years old, and have been a waiter for over 20 years. It’s what I love to do. I love…
Is An All-Meat Diet Really So Extreme?
The Zero Carb interview I did with The Andersen Family was recently shared on the popular Facebook page Authority Nutrition. It generated several hundred comments from readers. Some of the comments were sincere and thoughtful, while others were down right ignorant and unkind. Even though Charlene – the wife and mother of this lovely family…
My First 30 Days on Zero Carb by Candi Leftwich
I was diagnosed with psoriasis and Crohn’s Disease in 2012 at the age of 37. Both came as a surprise, as the psoriasis popped up out of nowhere, and – although I had alternating constipation and diarrhea for several years – I’d always thought my bowel habits were fairly normal. My Primary Care Physician encouraged…

Well, my name is Sura and today is the 58th day of my Zero Carb journey. Sorry for not posting any before/after photos, or more personal information about myself, but – for now – I’d like to keep my new way of eating a secret. But I’d love to share my story with you because…
My First 30 Days on Zero Carb by Kristie Sullivan
In June 2013, I was absolutely desperate to lose weight. I decided that it was the one thing I had battled and never conquered my entire life and that I would do it or die trying. A friend in whom I had confided – after the calories in/calories out (CICO) method had failed me –…
My First 30 Days on Zero Carb by Sarah Knight
My story is no different than anyone else’s. I have been overweight most of my life. It wasn’t until a few years ago that I started to actually care. As a teenager and into my early twenties my thought was that I could lose it later, when I needed to. I didn’t think about losing…
My First 30 Days on Zero Carb by Karen Kelbell
I came to Zero Carb from a low carb background. I’m 57 years old and I’ve been low carbing for the last 30 years, gaining and losing the same weight over and over. I’ve found that the older I get the harder it’s been to lose. I’m 5’2 and was at an all time high…
